The left foot, planted forward beneath the hem of the robe, is what sets this view apart, and the broken shackles and chains lie just at her feet. Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi designed the copper statue, Gustave Eiffel engineered its internal iron framework, and France gave it to the United States, which dedicated it in New York Harbor on October 28, 1886. Photographs from 1984 and 1985 were taken during the restoration that led up to the monument's centennial, so close views like this one show the weathered copper surface in unusual detail.
